Judge denies bond in Outlaws pipe-bomb blast

A judge has denied bond for two men charged in the pipe-bombing of a video poker business which authorities allege was ordered by the mob.

U.S. Magistrate Judge Maria Valdez denied bond Friday for 41-year-old Mark Polchan and 84-year-old Samuel Volpendesto.

The men allegedly pipe-bombed C&S Coin Operated Amusements in Berwyn. They were arrested when federal agents raided Outlaws Motorcycle Club as part of the investigation.

Prosecutors have said the Chicago Outfit ordered the bombing to keep control of its gambling business.

A lawyer for both men denies they have any ties to the mob or the Outlaws.
